The dialogues are designed to present the most relevant questions and answers about the Kaohsiung Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) System, including some basic introductions on the design, construction and operation, etc. I’d like to encourage our staffs to make good use of this booklet and try to memorize all the phrases so as to introduce the Kaohsiung MRT in fluent English. I hope that this booklet is of great use in enhancing their English skills both in terms of listening and speaking. Furthermore, it is also my wish that this book will help build up their confidence in communicating in English, and assist them to pass the GEPT test. ᓁགྷந ̚රϔ઼ 95 ѐ 5 ͡ President May 2006 - 1 - ϫ ᐂ Table of Contents ௐ˘ಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ̳Φ Part One: Introducing Kaohsiung Rapid Transit Corporation (KRTC) ௐ˟ಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ̳Φݡܲ߆ඉ Part Two: Introducing the Policy on Quality Assurance of KRTC ᛳְຽܢௐˬಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ̳Φ Part Three: Introducing the Affiliated Business of KRTC ௐαಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ̳Φ˿гฟ൴ Part Four: Introducing the Land Development of KRTC ௐ̣ಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ̳Φ̳Вְચ఍ Part Five: Introducing the Public Affairs Department at KRTC ௐ̱ಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ࿪ᓑ֘ Part Six: Introducing the Trains of the Kaohsiung MRT ௐ˛ಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ֘৭ Part Seven: Introducing the Stations of the Kaohsiung MRT ௐˣಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ߉̍ Part Eight: Introducing the Construction of the Kaohsiung MRT ௐ˝ಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻᒉྻఢထ(˘) Part Nine: Introducing the Operation Planning of the Kaohsiung MRT (1) ௐȈಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻᒉྻఢထ(˟) Part Ten: Introducing the Operation Planning of the Kaohsiung MRT (2) - 2 - ௐ˘ಏ̮Ĉ̬௜੼ฯଥྻ̳Φ Part One: Introducing Kaohsiung Rapid Transit Corporation (KRTC) 01. ኛય੼ฯଥྻ̳Φдࣹ྆ĉ Do you know where Kaohsiung Rapid Transit Corporation is located? ੼ฯξ݈ᗉડ̚щྮ˘ཱིĂд੼ฯ۩ᇀ၆ࢬĄ .02 It’s located at No.1 Jung-An Road, opposite the Kaohsiung Airport Catering Services, Ltd. ኛયྍިᆃ֕ĉ .03 Would you please tell me how to get there? ˭щྮ৭˭֘Ăٕ۰ລࢷࡓቢଥྻд R4A ਨཿ৭̚זཱི ኛລࢷ੼ฯξ̳֘ 69 .04 Ą֘ You can take Kaohsiung City Bus No.69 and get off at the Jhong-an Rd Station, or take the Red Line and get off at the R4A Caoya Station. 05. ੼ฯଥྻ̳Φңॡјϲĉ When was KRTC founded?
